Errmm>>> lotsa problems - Cyadd - 2008-09-10
So (sorry for the caps< it"s one of the problems) while i was reading ww"s thread about no more another world< maybe< i was holding down shift for more than eight seconds< thinkning of what to type back> then the usual message about sticky keys blah< blah< came up< and i pressed cancel and then everything should have been fine> but no< now everything i type is in caps< clicking on anything opens a new window for it< and scrolling up?down with my mouse wheel causes the page to back or forward> i tried re_doing what i did before to turn it on to no avail> any suggestions?
Well, I unplugged everything (mouse and keys) and then plugged them back in, and now everything seems to work fine. I guess lock this thread please, unless you can give some concrete answer to what happened.

You just had your Shift key stuck. Nothing major. You can tell by the way you have so many ">>>" and hints about 'Caps' and 'Opening things in new Windows'. Just bang your Shift key around the next time it happens and you'll be fine.

Really? I did bang it, and it seemed to be working fine (up down motion) Maybe I should have whacked it really hard.
